Superforecasters On The Art Of Predictions

 

The term “superforecaster” may sound like something to do with magic, but it is actually rooted in science.  Good Judgement Inc. is a global network of superforecasters making predictions about the future based on research. Many of their forecasts have proven to be more accurate than individual experts in specialized fields.

We look at the idea of superforecasting and speak with two midwest members of the Good Judgement network about how they do what they do and what they're predicting in regards to the COVID-19 pandemic.  

Guests:

Warren Hatch, CEO of Good Judgement

Bryan Hartman, superforecaster and computer science teacher in Monticello 

Chuck Harper, superforecaster in Indiana
